The AD&D N Module Series and Blackmoor (Split from:What was

[Havard]

Not really on topic, but I'e always kind of assumed that N3 - Destiny of Kings was written with Blackmoor in mind.

Maybe plots and ideas that were originally designed to appear in DA5 were recycled to fit into the Andevar universe?

It is an interesting theory. I could see the plots working in a Blackmoor context and the similarities between King Andahar and the King of Andevar are odd coincidences if not more.

What makes your theory less likely I think is the year of publication. N3 was published in 1986 while DA4 came out in 1987. If it was indeed something rejected for Blackmoor would it not be likely that they would have waited till after the end of the DA line before releasing it? Perhaps it is more likely that the author was inspired by Blackmoor? It would be interesting to ask Stephen Bourne about his inspiration for this module.

Officialness aside, do you have any further ideas for adapting N3 to Blackmoor? Are any of the other modules in the N series suitable for our favorite setting?
